GENERAL FREMONT. we find the events
of his busy career narrated with the charm
Of ease and simplicity.
Gen. Fremont is known as the great
American pathfinder as well as q distin.
guished soldier. When quite young he went
to the South American coast as teacher on
board a United States sloop Of war. Re.
turning he went as an assistant engineer Of
the United States Typographical corps for a
projected railway from Charleston to Gin
%cinnati, and later under the same commander
made q military reconnaissance of the
Cherokee country in North Carolina, Ten
nessee and Georgia. He says: "The acci-
dent Of this employment curiously began
a period OF years Of like work for
me among similar scenes Here I found
the path which I was destined to walk.
Through many Of the years to come the Occur
patton Of my prime of life, was to be among
Indians and In waste places" But it was in
exploring the Rocky mountains to examine
the South Pass, and the unknown region be-
tween the Rocky mountains and the Pacific
ocean that he earned the name Of the great
pathfinder. His book describes the regions
traversed as they then were, when to cross the
Rocky mountains meant a long experience in
hunger, thirst, hardship, danger and possible
death. His narratives Of these expeditions
cover broad regions of country andhalf a cent
ury of time, Millions of people now occupy
the ground where he then encountered only
wild animals and wild men. Out Of these expe-
ditiens came the seizure Of California In 1916
His third exploring party was merged in a
battalion which did its part in wrestling Cali

Much Ado About Nothing.

X II
Hope deferred naketh the heart
sick, but deferred hope revived by
the ilippant tongue Of Dame Rumor
and without cause, maketh the heart
of the postoflicc candidate to beat
against his heel. Last week soma
parties humorously inclined started
the report that Capt. Foster had re-
signed his position rs postmaster,
causing reviviiying of the hopes
of the several democratic cand,-
dates, who at once pulled on the
numerous strings Of their long laid
plans to secure the appointment.
Their maneuvers were confined TO
the corporation limits, with the ex-
ception of one, who in company
with a prominent county officer as
sponsor, hied hun in breathless haste
and at the speed OF railroad train
to the city by the Bluff, where he
poured out his aspirations to the
powers that be, and laying his
troubled head on The spacious
bosom, plead Tor "intlooence" and
support. He SAID that he had toiled
early aud late la the interests of re.
form and the suppression of the
"nigger" vote; had stumped the
county in favor of the prohibitory
amendment and immediately after
It's adoption denounced the republican
Legislature for submitting il to
the popular vote; that while the
party minions were reveliug in the
luxuries furnished by the central
committee he had burned the mid.
night taper in trumping up charges
against the opposition and given them
circulation at $l.5o per year. With
such arguments the case was laid
before the powers II the district. In
reply consolation was administered
in both liquid and solil substances
and patience lauded as virtue which
the applicant should cultivate. The
candidate returned TO Audubon, and
has evidently investigated the report.
for he stamps II rs canard. We
have not taken the trouble to look
into the matter, but feel inclined to
accept the report of the committee
Of one, aforesaid. We bid the can.
didates have patience, as the sus.
pense will have to be borne through
but one administration.
